Maybe I should start a production company in Japan?

I’d love some advice on how to spend up to a year in Japan with my family

Hi all,

For context I’m an American citizen, my wife is a Vietnamese citizen, and our baby is an American citizen.

I work remotely in media and make about $45k a year, not counting any extra freelance work I pick up.

We’ve been living in south east Asia for a while now, and have really wanted to for Japan a go. I spent some time there previously and just loved how peaceful it felt.

So I know I can go for up to 3 months as a US citizen.

Is there any visa available that would allow us to stay a year there? Aside from me acquiring a job with a local company that is. I was thinking of spinning up a small production company for myself over there and hiring on a local video editor.

I’ve seen some people register a business, but I believe the price for that just quintupled.
